I assume that isn't yours? If it is, congrats, that thing will be worth a fortune with the right buyer.

He's certainly cubeable but red creatures are stacked at that slot: Siege-gang, sarkhan, thundermaw, zealous conscripts, stormbreath, and this guy plus others I'm sure I'm forgetting. They should've made him a red three drop clearly.

Amusingly I had just ordered some Chinese proxies for my cube a couple days before this nonsense. The set was for more than my cube needed so I just got some legacy cards cause why not? Really hoping they actually arrive though this is my third attempt.

Skyl3lazer posted:Flanking is in a weird space according to MaRo in that it is named in such a way (HORSE CARDS) that the mechanic is difficult to use in a general context. The same problem arrives with Bushido and Ninjitsu. I know you are not maro (or?) but how is flanking specific to horses or culturally specific like those other two? Pretty general tactical and strategic concept there.

Skyl3lazer posted:Look at all of the cards that have flanking on them. They're all cavalry/horse cards. Ah, that seems like a really minor issue if they wanted it back. Plus it'll be entertaining to read the couple grogs freaking out about how all the originals had horses and now some of the new ones don't!!

stinkles1112 posted:So what are everybody's thoughts on Heir of Falkenrath? It seems... insane, frankly. Instant speed discard trigger, relevant typing, given the relative power level of now-cards vs 2011-cards, this feels like it could be this format's Delver. One extra mana in exchange for more synergies and guaranteed transformation is a more than fair trade off. He's going into my cube and a lot of others which doesn't always translate to constructed play but is a good sign.

Balon posted:I opened the best pool ever, including: What up promo thing in the ice buddy. I even managed to flip it once! Rest of my pool was hot garbage though. Best play of the day: I was stuck on 2-3 lands for a while but managed to keep the game competitive with thing in the ice and ample shamble backs and all my cheap removal. Gal I'm playing sacs her whole board to westvale abbey (which killed me last game, card good) and I compelling deterrence her ormendahl back to her empty hand. That triggered the last ice counter off and then I won. She was a great sport about the utter blowout which was nice. BJPaskoff posted:Painlands are in the format, this is a non-starter until players can't "mana burn" themselves out of harm's way. That's a good point I hadn't thought about. I have a mostly-nostalgia-driven-I'm-sure fondness for mana burn and would cite interesting designs like spectral searchlight but I suppose it allows for sweet cards like triskaidekaphobia to not be awful. So since it cuts both ways it's probably best to cut the arbitrary and rarely relevant rule. oh well

mcmagic posted:Path is also the best removal spell in Modern. Not being as good as path isn't exactly a huge knock for a standard card. Maybe during eldrazi winter but lightning bolt was the most played non-land card in modern for a good while. Bolt for life! Declaration in Stone is good. Pauper chat: was looking at u delver lists and there's a divide on 0 dazes or 4 dazes it seems. Is that just because daze is stupid expensive on modo and I should be jamming 4 in my paper deck? Because I feel as if I should be jamming 4 dazes in my paper list.

Speaking of (paper) formats that got hot and then disappeared my friends and I finally put together some (paper) pauper decks and, yeah, this format is great. Buying a deck for $20 isn't bad either. I got u delver and they got b control and acid trip--what should my next deck be? I like tempo, combo, aggro, control, midrange in about that order. I know one of them is also planning on elves so outside of the decks we already have or will have sell me on your fav pauper deck.

Fallorn posted:Now you can create Big Fatties where it has to cost 6+ to play and you start with 3-4 basic lands in play. Get 60+ creatures/spells that cost 6 or more in one deck and dump the massive worthless rares while pumping your format. So edh? e: oh poo poo is that the joke suicidesteve posted:RUG Tron and UB Control are both great. Just make sure you're not playing the no win conditions, kill with Pristine Talisman and Evincar's Justice build of UB. It's both worse than a build with Anglers and completely miserable. Those both look pretty sweet. Weird seeing flame slashes and firebolts but no bolts. I assume it's mostly because the deck plays at sorcery speed and usually doesn't care about burn to the face? I just really love, love lightning bolt.
